What type of offence is break and enter when it does not involve a dwelling house?

  1. Summary

  2. Indictable

  3. Hybrid

  4. Provincial

The correct answer is: Hybrid

Break and enter can be classified as a summary offence if it involves a breach of a dwelling house and an indictable offence if it involves a commercial property. However, when it does not involve a dwelling house or a commercial property, it is considered a hybrid offence. This means that it can be prosecuted either summarily or by indictment, depending on the severity of the offence and the decision of the prosecutor. Provincial offences, on the other hand, are typically minor offences such as traffic violations and are not applicable in this context.
